Abstract
Measurements were made of the angular position/time characteristics of a coarse control arm in the AAEC's materials testing reactor HIFAR following a trip. The method of measurement is described and the results are presented. It is clear that all of the measured transients may be reasonably fitted by a single differential equation.
